Abstract
Discharge electrode wires are arranged between parallel discharge tubes by attaching one end of the discharge electrode wire to an end clip within the frame of an electrostatic precipitator having rows of collecting electrode plates. The opposite end of the discharge electrode wire is detachably connected with an in-line spring at one end of the spring. The opposite end of the in-line spring is detachably connected with another end clip. The end clips are detachably engagable with the tubes of the frame and the discharge electrode wire is arranged between parallel tubes by attaching one end clip to one tube and extending the discharge electrode wire through use of the in-line spring in order to attach the second end clip to a parallel frame tube. This arrangement allows for easy access and removal of a damaged discharge electrode wire.
